The episode is directed by Morgan, and according to Gillies, "It's one of the best episodes we've ever done."
Meanwhile, Caroline will return to Klaus' life in season 5 to teach him how to become a good parent to Hope (Summer Fontana). Executive producer Julie Plec shared how Caroline relates to Klaus when it comes to being a parent.
"She's a mother, she lost her husband and she knows [Klaus] very well — better than some of the people in New Orleans. She understands the desire he has to be a good person in the name of his daughter, and she's very quick to recognize that he's not doing a very good job. She's a friend, she's a support system and she calls him on his s–t," Plec explained.
In terms of rekindling their romance, Plec doesn't want to make any promises.
"There's still that electricity between them. ... No promises of where that goes," Plec said.
"The Originals" season 5 premieres on Friday, April 20, at 9 p.m. EST on The CW.
